I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.
Struggling I'm feeling numb nothing. Not eating much still no appetite. Feel crap. This year will be the first time mother in law is in a nursing home. We will go later on to see her. It will be quiet for us at home with the kids.

No doubt. Wondered what that noise was behind car, musta snagged genset 😀 Am fine. Sitting out back on own with cold beer. Father doesn't need attention just talk every now and again. Hes not too good. Heat not helping. Sister and husband coming later that will allow me to disappear

The cold frothy should help with the heat a bit! Good that you will have an excuse to disappear later. Hope your Kmart fan doesn't stop working - it is from Kmart - so you never know!!

Poor fans!!!! @TAB
I'm actually doing ok. Did final shopping trip this morning and think I have everything. Family coming to my place tomorrow for lunch - which will be the best place to be because no-one else has air con - only me -and it's supposed to be at least 30 degress.My place is a really old brick cottage so keeps quite cool anyway. Have a lot of cleaning up still to go but have time so will do a little at a time so I'm not too worn out later. What are your plans for tomorrow?
